The Beacon Scorecard: Week Two

As the Allman Brothers Band drove into week two of their Beacon Run, the highlight for many was the much-rumored and equally anticipated appearance of Eric Clapton, who joined the group on both Thursday and Friday evenings. Clapton enlivened the proceedings by guesting on some familiar selections and also stepping outside his comfort zone by appearing on versions of "Dreams" and "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed." Guests abounded over the course of the week and other highlights included Monday's version of "The Weight" with Bonnie Bramlett, Bekka Bramlett, Susan Tedeschi and Bruce Katz, Tuesday's "Can’t Find My Way Home" with Sheryl Crow as well as Saturday's "Jessica" with Bruce Hornsby.

The complete setlists appear below. Once again, we remind you that all five of these shows (their five antecedents and the five to follow) can be viewed online with a subscription to Moogis.
